A power cable for an electrical submersible well pump has at least one insulated conductor and an armor strip wrapped in helical turns around the conductor. The armor strip has a steel layer and a first polymer layer bonded to a first side of the steel layer. Each of the helical turns of the armor strip overlaps with another of the helical turns, causing the first polymer layer of each of the helical turns to form a seal with of a next one of the helical turns. A second polymer layer may be bonded to a second side of the steel layer. The second polymer layer of each of the helical turns overlies in sealing contact with the first polymer layer of the next one of the helical turns.

The invention relates to insulated submarine cables including conductive cores (3a, 3b) and insulating material (5a, 5b) surrounding the conductive cores (3a, 3b). Such an insulated cable includes a first length and a second length. The cable has a roughly constant core (3a) cross-sectional area A1 and a roughly constant insulating material (5a) thickness T1 along the first length, and a different roughly constant core (3b) cross-sectional area A3 and/or a different roughly constant insulating material (5b) thickness T2 along the second length. The cable may include one or more other lengths which join the first length and the second length to one another.

An electrical grounding system can include an electrically conductive column configured for communication with a fault current source, wherein the electrically conductive column can include an open-ended copper tube, and carbon fiber fabric assembled onto at least a portion of the electrically conductive column, the carbon fiber fabric having a conductive relationship with at least a portion of the electrically conductive column.

The methods and systems of lower the grounding potential of an AC electrical grid for protecting a potable water delivery systems from corrosion due to a chemical redox reaction between protective concentration of disinfection chemicals in water and iron, lead and/or copper metal pipes within the potable water delivery system. The methods protect the surface of interactive metals more noble than zinc. These methods are also effective in corrosion protection of the national metallic infrastructure of metals more noble than zinc, such as street signs, lights stands, bridges, and any systems connected to the electrical grid.
